Yawn. Got anything else?

Your argument supposed we should just accept this out of the Biden administration because “Trump would be worse”…

You get that the argument you are making isn’t good enough, don’t you? There won’t be a Palestine in November. It’s irrelevant what or how Trump would be when Biden is as bad as it needs to be for the total destruction of the Palestinian people right now. Not at some future date, but right now.

Biden apologists for the US position on Israel and Palestinian are sustaining this genocide.

Yawn. Nope – for anyone with a modicum of reasoning capacity – that’s literally all I need.

So you are good with the genocide of the Palestinian people as long as it’s in a Democrats watch. Just want to make sure I’ve got you right.

“Yawn.” Strawman.

Buddy, listen:

  • Whatever happens between now and November, it doesn’t change the fact that an election is going to occur in November. Furthermore, in that election Trump would be worse in quite literally every conceivable way, including for the people of Palestine / Gaza. Therefore nothing you said has any impact on my point in my comment.

  • Feel free to pressure Biden to do more for Palestine in the meantime; just try to comprehend that if Biden too quickly shifts to abandoning longtime support for Israel, he may ostracize an even-larger voting bloc of Jewish Americans who by the polling support Israel pretty vehemently (80%+). If you think politically he can jeopardize that group versus the smaller far-left and Palestinian segments of the population, you’d be wrong. He must toe the line between these two groups.

  • No matter how hard you try to shoehorn Biden being responsible for the Genocide in Gaza, as a convenient wedge-driving tactic for which right-wingers love you for – it’s not goin to work. Netanyahu is responsible. Period.

  • If Trump were in office right now, the fate of Gaza would’ve been even worse. Forget the fact that you seem 100% a-okay with Ukraine not getting any more assistance either.
